The only pictrue we took today was when we stepped into Brantzel's to warm up! Thank you Greene County HD for organizing Earth Day 2024 in Greene County! #gobig4greene #EarthDay2024
Work Together Wednesday
When children build together they explore math and science concepts and develop their social and early literacy skills. Children can use any building material—from a fort of branches on the playground to a block city in the classroom, or a hideaway made from couch pillows at home. Build and share pictures of children’s creations on Facebook, X, and Instagram using the #WOYC24 hashtag.

Tasty Tuesday
This fun, food-themed day is about more than just cheese and crackers. Cooking together connects math with literacy skills, science, and more. With the rise in childhood obesity, you can encourage healthy nutrition and fitness habits at home. Create your own healthy snacks and share the recipes and photos of your creations in the comments below.

Music Monday
When children sing, dance and listen to music, they develop their language and early literacy skills while being active and encouraging movement . Make up and record your own version of a song or write you own and share below.
Follow the link to see how music is an important part of development.
